After hearing the secretary's words, Elder Miao and Elder Xu couldn't help but look at each other.

To be honest, although the two of them guessed that Qiu Tu would probably hold a meeting of elders in the near future, they really didn't expect it to be so soon.

‘Qiu Tu is too anxious’

Their keen political sense allowed them to smell something different.

Therefore, Mr. Miao coughed, and then asked in a deep voice, "When will the meeting be held? Who notified it?"

After hearing what Mr. Miao said, the secretary quickly bowed and responded, "Go back to Mr. Miao. It was notified by the Privy Council that it will be held at 1 p.m."

Mr. Miao nodded thoughtfully, and then said, "I understand, let's go down."

The secretary bowed again and walked out of the courtyard quickly.

As the secretary's figure gradually disappeared at the entrance of the courtyard, the two elders looked at each other.

Mr. Miao asked tentatively, "Qiu Tu, do you want to start today?"

When Mr. Xu heard this, his cloudy eyes showed some deep thought, "It's very possible."

Mr. Miao asked, "Then what should we do?"

Mr. Xu picked up the tea cup on the table, lowered his eyebrows and took a sip of tea, and then said slowly, "What can we do?"

"Do you think we have a choice?"

Mr. Xu said with some emotion, "Don't think of us as the previous senior management of the shelter."

"Set yourself up."

"In fact, we are no different from all other living beings and the ants on the ground."

"If we had surrendered on our own initiative, we would still have a place in the new system."

"But we were knocked on the door and had to admit defeat."

"Now, it's good that Qiu Tu is still willing to keep our position."

"Not to mention who is Qiu Tu?"

"But he is a super-level cataclysm who killed the seventh-level evil god and enslaved the sixth-level evil god."

"Coupled with his status as a high-ranking official, he has been given a golden body and cannot even use nuclear weapons."

"So, when we face him, it's like 'Yurou' meets 'Daozu'. There's nothing we can do about it."

Speaking of this, Mr. Xu paused and concluded, "Let me tell you. No matter what happens this afternoon, let's not express any opinions."

"For this meeting, we only bring the ears, not the mouth."

After hearing Elder Xu's sincere suggestion, Elder Miao showed a deep thought on his face, and then nodded thoughtfully.

And at the same time.

Shelter 7. Wei Family.

As one of the original three giants of Sanctuary 7.

The Wei family has experienced three major events: "The Founding of the 7th Sanctuary", "Partridge Terrace Incident" and "Qiu Lin Coup", but it still stands at the top of the power of the 7th Sanctuary.

Of the original four founders of the 7th Sanctuary, only Wei Zhengze, the head of the Wei family, is left. The four major families have experienced changes over the past few decades, but only the Wei family has remained consistent.

From this we can also see the Wei family’s timing and power.

At this time, the main room of Wei's house.

The head of the Wei family, Wei Zhengze, had a serious look on his face after listening to the report from the person in charge of the Wei family's intelligence system. Then he tapped his fingers on the table gently and pondered quietly.

After a moment, he came back to his senses, then looked at the person in charge of the emotional system and confirmed, "So, what you mean is that Qiu Tu has reached an agreement with the 3rd Sanctuary."

"The third shelter helps him secure other shelters, and then actively builds momentum for him to make him the number one in our shelter?"

"And when Qiu Tu seizes power, will he agree to a series of unequal treaties?"

“Which even includes that Sanctuary 3 can set up offices and station troops in the states of Sanctuary 7?”

Hearing Wei Zhengze's words, the intelligence chief nodded slightly, and then affirmed, "Yes."

Wei Zhengze's face was filled with anger, "What is Qiu Tu doing? Doesn't this make Sanctuary 7 a semi-colony?!"

Hearing Wei Zhengze's words, the person in charge of intelligence coughed quickly, and then reminded him softly, "Master, be careful what you say."

After hearing the reminder from the intelligence chief, Wei Zhengze realized that he had made a mistake.

So he quickly picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea in a disguised manner.

He drank this sip of tea for three or four seconds.

Three or four seconds later, he adjusted his mood, put down the tea, and then said with a look of neither joy nor sorrow, "Does Lin Xi know the news?"

Lin Xi is Princess Xi.

The person in charge of intelligence lowered his head and whispered, "I must have known about it for a long time."

Wei Zhengze tapped his fingers on the table, thinking quietly.

After a moment, he finally said, "Although I don't know exactly what agreement was reached between Qiu Tu and Lin Xi."

"But if I guess correctly, there must be relevant conditions regarding how the benefits of the 7th Asylum will be distributed."

"Now, Qiu Tu not only sold the 7th Sanctuary and turned the 7th Sanctuary into a semi-colony of the 3rd Sanctuary. He is also preparing to oust her from power in less than a month."

"If I were her, I would definitely not hand over power so easily."

After hearing the policy analysis, the head of the intelligence agency nodded slightly hesitantly, "That's right."

"During this period, we contacted Lin Xi and made a rough personality mapping of her."

"This woman is extremely vindictive. She is also thoughtful and thoughtful."

"If Qiu Tu dares to design her like this, she will definitely not let Qiu Tu go."

"So, my suggestion is that we wait and see what happens, without helping each other. Then we sit back and watch the tigers fight."

"After all, when they fight, it's us who actually gain."

Hearing what the intelligence chief said, Wei Zhengze also had a hint of understanding on his face.

He analyzed, "As the largest surrender faction in the 7th Sanctuary, we surrendered directly to Qiu Tu. We can almost be said to be Qiu Tu's direct force in the 7th Sanctuary."

"As for Princess Xi, although she is a partner with Qiu Tu, but now there is a conflict of interest. Then Qiu Tu will inevitably support another force to check and balance Princess Xi."

"That's us!"

After hearing Wei Zhengze's analysis, the intelligence chief looked at Wei Zhengze with a smile in his eyes, then nodded and said, "Yes."

"In fact, this trend has been revealed during this period."

"After Qiu Tu took over the asylum, he purged the Senate. But the purges were all those that were close to the Zhao family and the Han family."

"Like the factions that are close to our Wei family, Qiu Tu has barely touched them."

"This has greatly preserved our strength."

"Even if Princess Xi takes the throne and has great righteousness, she can only compromise with us."

This intelligence chief is obviously the Wei family's think tank.

Many of the previous decisions of the Wei family may have been proposed or modified by him.

Therefore, after listening to the words of the intelligence chief, Wei Zhengze nodded with satisfaction and agreed, "That's right. That's it."

He directly determined the approach of the next meeting of elders, "If that's the case, then I won't say anything during the meeting in the afternoon no matter what happens."

The person in charge of intelligence nodded slightly and agreed.

At the same time, the 6th Sanctuary is the hub.

"Bang!" With a sound, the study door was pushed open from the outside, and the wall was kissed firmly.

As the door opened, Kou Yu strode in angrily.

Kou Xuan, who was sitting behind the desk and signing his name, raised his head and glanced at his brother, then reached out and gestured to the sofa next to him, "Sit."

After saying that, Kou Xuan continued to lower his head and write the document.

After hearing Kou Xuan's words, Kou Yu came to the sofa angrily. Then he sat down on the sofa.

"Brother, are you not in a hurry at all?"

"I already know that Qiu Tu sold us out!"

After hearing Kou Yu's words, Kou Xuan continued to correct a document with his head down with a slight smile on his face.

In this way, after finishing correcting the document in hand, Kou Xuan slowly put down the pen in his hand.

Then he did not directly answer his brother's question, but suddenly said something unrelated.

"Commander Li Feng from the 4th shelter contacted me on behalf of the 2nd shelter."

Kou Yu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Kou Xuan with a surprised expression.

Kou Xuan leaned on the chair and said slowly, "She said that after these years of investigation, she felt that after Qiu Tu left, the Kou family was actually the most suitable force to become the king of the "Northwest Region."
